BSNL Broadband is now offering 8mbps as minimum speeds on almost all their plans

[pothi]

Did they mean to publish it on April first?

Now BSNL Broadband New Speed Is 8Mbps As Minimum From 249 Plan

Yup, This is a joke. They can't provide 8mbps on DSL. They will need vdsl for it. And for vdsl connection, your home should be under 500m from the exchange point.

No Joke !

BSNL will upgrade Pre-FUP download speed for all its broadband plans to 8 Mbps & above from 1st November, 2017.

8-10 Mbps speeds can be achieved for up to 2.5 kms from DSLAM provided the line is noise-free !

I'm about 1 km from exchange and I get 21 Mbps easily on ADSL 2+ !

@Sushubh The news is almost confirmed ! The thread title may be updated !

Technically, it is possible. Plan 1441 and plan 2841 provide 8mbps.

BSNL!

About time that BSNL offers a flat 4 Mbps plan for ~ R.900/month !

Which plan do you have? Did not see any 21mbps plan on their site.

 

[geek]

For 8-10 Mbps, users up to 2.5 kms are good to go, irrespective of the modulation (ADSL & above). No need for VDSL for 10 Mbps.

Attainable rate on ADSL2+ !

i couldn't care less for pre fup speeds,its a sham if they dont upgrade the post fup to 4 mbps at the very least,2 mbps is too low.

 

[razpor]

why dont they just upgrade the minimum speeds or abandon the fup bandwagon.
